Jeetesh said the traffic prevented me from moving (change the narration)

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Jeetesh said that the traffic prevented him from moving.

Explanation:

Change in narration is when the direct speech is changed into indirect speech or vice versa. In other words, change in narration means the change in the manner of relaying the same message without using the exact words spoken by the speaker.

The given sentence "Jeetesh said the traffic prevented me from moving" can be changed in the reported speech as-

<u><em>Jeetesh said that the traffic prevented him from moving.</em></u>

Here, the "me" in the original sentence refers to Jeetesh, thus, we replace it with the pronoun "him".
